The presentation of the emotions of humanity adequately is certain to attract attention. In this film, a reproduction of striking scenes in the life of a historical character, the Selig players have accomplished something worth while. The exhibition of elemental emotions will always make people think, and when that is accomplished one of the most important functions of either pictures or books has been developed. This film is strong, presenting pictures of life and emotion which will appeal with a more than ordinary degree of strength to every person, no matter what his station or occupation may be. A historic character adequately presented is well worth the consideration of every serious person. Selig, in this presentation, may well claim the right to feel proud of what a motion picture can be made to say. - The Moving Picture World, May 7, 1910
